Martin 00-18 Joe Bonamassa signature acoustic guitar

Only five remain

A well-played classic, made new.

Joe’s original is a pre-war 1937 00-18, and this guitar is built to honor it.

The solid spruce top carries a custom sunburst that replicates the visual wear of his instrument. It has the look of a vintage classic that has been played for decades, backed by the reliability of a modern Martin.

Genuine mahogany back and sides give it warm bass, a punchy midrange, and articulate treble. The comfortable 00 body suits blues, folk, and fingerstyle playing, and it invites you to dig in and make it your own.
